I loved this poem and the baby is absolutely adorable. Yes it is so much from to watch the children do Easter Egg coloring, Easter egg hunt and seeing them all dressed up. I am a grandmother of three and my grandchildren are so filled with energy, but after awhile they too get tired just as grandma does lol.

thanks Jodah means a lot to me and thank you dear Phyllis for visiting this poem .. a year ago today I hubbed it LOL :)

How sweet. For some of us, that feeling never changes. We just do not show it as much. I have left when I didn't want to go and while the adult outside was put together the little girl in me made her faces.

Hi Frank,

You captured the fun and enthusiasm of children perfectly on those exciting days of finding Easter eggs and jelly beans. A real treat was also finding a chocolate bunny and those cute little marshmallow peeps. You took me back in time with this fun hub. Thanks! Darling photo! Up and beautiful votes.

Hi Frank, thanks. I went to church on Sunday and from there we went to my sister in laws parents house for an Easter dinner. I gave my nephew his Easter basket and two Easter books. Can you believe he is going to be three years old in May? Unbelievable how quickly time flies. I still remember when the phone rang that day at the hospital when he was born. I love the cute little jean dress on Acee. que belleza.

Frank - You have so aptly captured little children and Easter, although it could be little children and any holiday or special occasion. They so desperately want to prolong the fun, the excitement, the treats, the sugar...even when they are exhausted and miserable. I remember my three little boys being like that, exactly as you describe them. :) Theresa
